Getting started

The demo board would not connect (no second LED)

Since in Italy we only have NB-IoT, I guess I should recompile a more recent version of the demo application.

I have followed all steps in Getting Started Assistant but:

Even after registering Segger Embedded Studio, the Nordic version says I am not registered. The standard version of  Embedded Studio runs just fine with the same credentials.

When I try  "Open nrfConnect SDK Project" with:

  • C:/Projects/ncs/nrf/applications/asset_tracker/CMakeLists.txt
  • C:/Projects/ncs/zephyr/boards/arm/nrf9160_pca10090
  • nrf9160_pca10090
  • C:/Projects/ncs/nrf/applications/asset_tracker/build_nrf9160_pca10090

I get an error that asset_tracker.emProject is invalid. When i exit the window, an error marker is on the message(FATAL_ERROR... line:

execute_process(

  message(FATAL_ERROR "command failed with return code: ${ret}")
endif()

  • I have already downloaded and installed mfw_nrf9160_1.0.0.zip with nRF connect and got "Modem DFU completed successfully!", but I suspect that at this point I should reload the application; this is why I downloaded the development chain, but then I got stuck with the Nordic version of SES not recognizing the license, even after trying to get a new registration for a couple of times.

    If I try to use nRF Connect, all I get is:  Error: 'AT+CFUN=1 ' timed out

    I do not understand if mfw_nrf9160_1.0.0.zip is a sort of BIOS, after which I should have to add an application, or it already contains a modem application.
